Jean-Jacques graduated from the Rochester Institute of Technology, where he completed his Master of Science in Electrical Engineering. In his studies, Jean-Jacques focused on Control Systems Design, Mixed-Signal IC Design, and RF Design. His research focus was in smart-sensor platform design for RF connector applications for the telecommunications industry. During his research, Jean-Jacques developed a passion for the field of RF/microwaves and expanded his knowledge by doing R&D for the telecommunications industry.

Nonlinearity and distortion have created interference and system level challenges with RF/microwave equipment since the first transmissions. With the latest high-speed wireless technologies, understanding and mitigating distortions is critical to reducing signal degradation.

For power amplifiers and resistors, thermal-conduction bottlenecks are limiting device performance. CVD diamond has the potential to overcome these challenges and release the potential of GaN and thin-film resistive technologies.
